Man charged with assaulting girlfriend with cheeseburger

VERO BEACH, Fla. — A Vero Beach man is facing a domestic violence charge after authorities say he assaulted his girlfriend with a cheeseburger.

An Indian River County Sheriff's Office arrest report says 22-year-old Vincent Gonzalez and his girlfriend got into an argument as they sat in a car in front of their home. The report says Gonzalez would not let her out of the vehicle so the woman threw his drink out of the car. In response, Gonzalez allegedly grabbed her arm and smashed the cheeseburger into her face. The pair got out of the car, and authorities say Gonzalez again took the McDonald's sandwich and put it on her face.

Gonzalez was released on $1,000 bond Wednesday.
